Facebook for BlackBerry 3.3.0.9 now available in the BlackBerry Beta Zone

Facebook for BlacKBerry has been updated again in the BlackBerry Beta Zone, this time to version 3.3.0.9. The new version brings along plenty of updates including updated BBM integration, photo features, unfriending and more. This is a pretty hefty update from the previous version so it should be well worth the download. If you're a Beta Zone member you should be able to grab the update right now. If you haven't yet signed up you can do so from the link below to get in on the fun. Keep reading for the full list of updates.

As of last night, and still today, I get intermittent Facebook Server Errors (can't reach server). Annoying. Other than the slightly different look, not seeing any great benefits. May go back to official.

I have some FB calendar trouble since a couple of versions back, even with that one. Even though I have unchecked the "Share calendar" option in the FB app, I still get a second calendar. I can delete the service book, but it will reappear once I launch FB. I have tried different solutions without success. I'm thinking I should just wipe the 9900 and reload the OS completely. Any suggestion?

agreed. This is my most wanted feature. after using android off and on for a few years, it makes fb much more usable when i can just hit share rather than having to redownload a picture to share it or go to the url then share it. i really hope this makes it into the next version.

You have to enable sharing pin on profile via options. Then The other person needs it set up the same way. Go to the persons profile and click on the plus symbol. The option to BBM will be there along with message, text,call and everyone's favorite "poke".

I still have trouble viewing photos as well, has anyone else noticed this? Most of the time the only way I can get a photo to pop up is if I click on the the menu, then hit "view photo comments" then click on the photo at the top.

Just clicking on a posted photo rarely opens it for me. It just sits on "loading" and never comes up.

Syncing between the phone and web is huge. I hate being on FB on my computer and my phone just blinking away. I assume if I check a notification on my PB that it will go away on my phone as well? Which leads me to...where's bridge functionality for FB between the phone and PB? Which leads me to...what will the bridge functionality be like for BB10?

If you check it on your computer, the blinking led and notification will go away once FB updates the newsfeed and notifications which is based on the amount of time you've set it on your settings e.g. 1 hour, etc. They should make it push too, I agree.

Do you mean the "refresh news feed" section of the options menu? I had it set to never so that it wouldn't use as much of my battery, I wish I would have known that a long time ago. Thanks for the info and I eagerly await push functionality.
